Our services
Automotive services in Blackburn
From regular servicing to more complex repairs, we help local drivers keep their cars safe, reliable and roadworthy. We service petrol, diesel, LPG and light commercial passenger vehicles — if you’re not sure what your car needs, call us and we’ll point you in the right direction.
Logbook servicing
When you buy a new vehicle, the manufacturer provides a service schedule for keeping it properly maintained. Regular logbook servicing keeps your vehicle in good condition and gives you a clear service history. We service petrol, diesel, LPG and light commercial passenger vehicles.
Roadworthy & pre-purchase inspections
Selling a vehicle, transferring ownership or putting a car back on the road may require a Roadworthy Certificate inspection. Buying a used car? A pre-purchase inspection helps you understand what you are buying — we check the vehicle and look for issues that may not be obvious on a test drive.
Brake repairs
Your brakes are one of the most important safety systems in your car. If they feel spongy, make noise, take longer to stop, or have not been checked in a while, it is worth having them inspected. We provide brake servicing and repairs to keep your vehicle safe on the road.
Steering & suspension
Your steering and suspension affect comfort, control and braking performance. If something feels loose, noisy, bumpy or unstable, it should be checked.
We can help with
- Shock absorbers and coil springs
- Bushing replacements
- Tension bars
- Power steering repairs
- Other steering and suspension issues
Clutch & transmission
Your clutch and transmission transfer power from the engine to the wheels, and problems can become expensive if ignored. Signs of trouble include difficulty getting into gear, clunking noises, burning smells, slipping or rough changes, and unusual vibration.
We can help with
- Clutch repairs and servicing
- Automatic transmission repairs and servicing
- Manual transmission repairs and servicing
- Differential repairs and servicing
Car air conditioning
Driving without air conditioning in an Australian summer is uncomfortable, and weak air conditioning can point to leaks or worn components. We check your system, inspect for leaks, replace cracked hoses or seals, repair faulty compressors and TX valves, and re-gas when required.
Radiators & cooling systems
If your engine is running hot or your car is leaking coolant, do not ignore it — cooling problems can lead to engine damage if left too long.
We can help with
- Radiator repairs or replacement
- Heater unit repairs or replacement
- Coolant flushes
- Leak checks
- Head gasket replacement
- Thermostat checks and replacement
Diagnostics & auto electrical
Modern vehicles rely heavily on electronics and computer control modules. When a warning light appears or the car will not start, proper diagnostics matter.
We can help with
- Diagnostics and advice
- Body electrics
- ABS, traction and stability control repairs
- SRS and central locking systems
- ECU reprogramming
Tyres & wheel alignments
Tyres affect grip, braking distance, steering and safety — especially in the wet. Uneven wear can also point to alignment or fitting issues.
We can help with
- Major tyre brands for all makes and models
- Tyre fitting
- Tyre balancing
- Wheel alignments
Other mechanical repairs
We also provide a wide range of additional automotive services. If you do not see what you need, contact us and ask.
This includes
- Classic vehicle servicing and repairs
- Fuel pump repairs and replacement
- Windscreen repairs and replacement
- Common rail diesel repairs
- Engine reconditioning
